The scariest moment of the Dwight King Womens Jersey Seattle Seahawks' 2015 season came when wide receiver Ricardo Lockette suffered a serious neck injury while on punt coverage during a Week 8 game against the Dallas Cowboys.A hit by Jeff Heath gave Lockette a concussion, along with disk and ligament damage in his neck. He underwent surgery, continues to wear a neck brace and faces a long road to recovery.Lockette recently visited with firefighters and paramedics in Redmond, Washington. In a video posted on Facebook, he explained how close to death he was on the football field."[The doctors] said if I would have stood up then, the weight of my head -- left, right, front, back -- I would have died," Lockette said. "If one of my teammates would have come over and pulled my arm, just barely, I might have died. Or if the returner at the time would have broken a couple tackles, and they would have rolled and fell on me, I would have died on that field. But what saved my life was the trainers, the work that you guys do."Lockette went on to thank the firefighters and paramedics and offered to help them in whatever way possible.The Seattle Seahawks made their first move in free agency Monday night, agreeing to terms with veteran defensive tackle Ahtyba Rubin on a new three-year deal.http://www.officiallightningshop.com/authentic-27-jonathan-drouin-jersey.html The negotiating period continues Tuesday, and teams are able to officially sign players on Wednesday.The Seahawks have holes to fill, especially if left tackle Russell Okung and outside linebacker Bruce Irvin sign elsewhere. Keeping that in mind, here are 10 players from other teams who they could pursue in the days and weeks ahead.The Seattle Seahawks and defensive tackle Ahtyba Rubin have agreed to terms on a three-year contract, a league source has confirmed.Mike Garafolo of Fox Sports first reported the deal.After the season, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll emphasized that the team's priority was to try and retain some of the team's key pieces. Rubin was one of seven starters scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent. While he's certainly not the biggest name on the Seahawks, Rubin was a key cog in the team's run defense, which limited opponents to 3.6 yards per carry last season.http://www.officialbluesstore.com/authentic-2-al-macinnis-jersey.html "You can't move the dude, and he pursues the football really well," Carroll said on 710 ESPN Seattle at one point last season. "I think he's been the most effective guy playing three-technique for us that we've had, and most consistent. He just won't budge. The harder it gets, the tougher he gets, and the more he ain't going to move anywhere."Rubin is primarily a two-down player. He played 47.8 percent of the team's defensive snaps last season and turns 30 in July.The Seahawks may next look to lock up the guy who plays right next to Rubin: Nose tackle Brandon Mebane. He is also an unrestricted free agent.On the defensive side of the ball, the Seahawks also need to address outside linebacker/defensive end if Bruce Irvin leaves. And they need to see if they can work something out with right cornerback Jeremy Lane.http://www.authenticpanthersstore.com/authentic-20-sean-bergenheim-jersey.html In 2015, the Seahawks led the NFL in fewest points allowed for the fourth straight season. They need tweaks, not an overhaul. Signing Rubin is a good first step.
